  • Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
  • Butch Brown has caught more than 1,500 bass weighing 10-plus pounds. No one in the history of fishing comes close. He is world renown for his skills as a fisherman, but why does he search for these elusive big fish instead of the guaranteed small catch?

    I've run into Butch dozens of times fishing the Lagoon, he took the time to talk to my son extensively on one of our fishing trips there, what a classy dude he is. He really is a LEGEND. This is a great piece on a really great guy and it just reminds me of the good we can share when we take the time to slow down a little.

    I am in my early 60’s now and go out often with swimbaits these days. My most productive time has been prespawn when the bass were feeding up for the spawn. Is there a season “not” to throw big swimbaits? During the spawn and just after, they seem to have no interest it seems.

    • @morganvanschuyver
      @morganvanschuyver 2 роки тому +1

      It depends where you live, but basically there's a swimbait on the market for every season. At times, a person has to adapt, but a swimbait can draw a bite 365. During the dog days of summer ( like right now ) is a very productive time of year even at night. Good luck

    What makes California have a large number of double digit bass more then any other state. In most states you are lucky if you can get a double digit bass, but it looks normal in California

    • @erikgralian573
      @erikgralian573 2 роки тому +2

      It used to be more normal back in the day. A 10lbs bass is still verrry good and a rare fish in California. The reason they are so big out here is cuz it’s a Florida strain bass and they used to plants lots of trout and the bass would eat them.

    He fishes a pond, catches the same fish over and over....If you ever saw the pond at Castaic, you will understand....Same fish over and over......He can't do it at any of the other SoCal lakes....

    Putin, Biden and Macron on a plane across Europe (the joke is old, but it's funny. I posted it on UA-cam).
    Putin, Biden and Macron were on a flight across Europe when the plane caught fire. There were only two parachutes on the plane. Hastily, Putin grabbed a “parachute”, turned to Macron and Biden and shouted: “Comrades! I need to stay alive to save Russia!” Putin jumped out of the plane. Macron took a parachute and gave it to Biden. Excited, Biden exclaimed: "Macron, do you want to preserve my life so I can save America?!" Macron replied: “No, Biden! We have two parachutes. The daring Putin, in order to get the parachute, took my backpack and jumped out of the aircraft!”.
